In view of the pseudo-historical discussion about extermination camps, which is presently taking place in Polish-language social media, it is worth reminding you Witold Pilecki report. It is simply a paper of large historical value, a unique evidence to the barbarism of the German occupiers who built hell on earth in the lands conquered by them. It is simply a unique source, due to the fact that written down by an eyewitness who was in Auschwitz – Birkenau voluntarily and intentionally to show the planet the shocking truth.
Below are fragments of the Witold Pilecki Report:
"Railway transports carrying about a 1000 people all day ended their tour on the siding in Rajsk. Trains were placed under ramps and the contents were unloaded.
I wonder what thoughts were in the ss-mann skull.
There were many women and children in the cars. Sometimes children in cradles. This is where everyone was expected to end their lives at once.
They carried them like a flock of animals—for slaughter!
So far with no sense of anything, passengers were getting off the ramp on orders. To avoid embarrassing scenes, they were treated with comparative courtesy. It was ordered to put food on 1 pyramid, on the another – all things. They were told that things would be returned. The first anxiety was born in the passengers, whether their things would perish, whether they would find their own, whether they would change their suitcases, etc.
After that, they were divided into groups. Men and boys over 13 went to 1 group. Women with children (boys up to 13 years old) – to the second. Under the pretext of having to bathe, they were told to undress in 2 separate groups, keeping the appearance of shame.
The clothes were besides arranged by both groups into 2 large piles, intended to be passed on to disinfection, worrying clearly whether they would replace their clothes and underwear there. After these hundreds of separate women with children, and separately men went to barracks, which were expected to be baths, and were gas cameras. (The windows were only outside – they were fiction – inside was – a wall).
After closing the sealed door, there was a mass execution inside. From the balcony-crust ss-mann in the gas mask he threw gas on the head of the crowd gathered below it!
Two genera gas was utilized – in bottles that crashed and solidified – in the form of discs, which, after beginning the hermetic cans and throwing it distant by a ss-mann in rubber gloves, passed into a volatile state filling the gas camera and killing people rapidly here. It took a fewer minutes. There were 10 minutes waiting. Then the winded, the camera door was opened on the other side of the ramp and the commando of the Jews carried warm bodies with wheelbarrows and carriages to close crematoria, where the bodies were rapidly burned.
Meanwhile, there were hundreds more on the cameras.
Technical improvements were introduced in the future, in this slaughterhouse for people, after which the process took place even faster and more efficiently."
